While talking about it, do CO Plats get exit rows on US? How long before?

I think all CO elites can get US exit rows at the airport, but its YMMV.
Upgrades for CO elite are much harder, but if you get a great agent they can upgrade you.

No, then you won't have any shot of an upgrade.

Why don't people post details when they ask questions?
No, on a BF flight you have an extremely minute chance of an upgrade.
